The essential advantages for using SCTP compared to TCP as it relates to FC are as follows: - Headers contained within one frame. - Objects aligned at 32-bit boundaries. - Out of sequence frame processing. - Standard authentication. - Independent streams under common control. - Session restart. - Improved error detection. - Prevention of blind spoofing and denial of service attacks. - Standard Heartbeat and multi-homing.
